So Why’s Tink So Mad?

Lighthouse at Two Lights by Edward Hopper (1927)

No Easy Day Indeed

It looks like the Navy SEAL who wrote this book about the mission to kill Osama bin Laden will have a peck of trouble.

The Pentagon warned on Thursday that it was considering legal action against a former U.S. Navy SEAL for material breach of non-disclosure agreements with his first-hand account of the [...]

The speech

Mitt Romney’s acceptance speech at the 2012 Republican National Convention was his finest political moment. Endearing, pointed, human – everything Romney’s critics said he couldn’t convey, he did so successfully and effectively. Ratings for this event won’t be what they have been in year’s past, but familiarity will grow once choice clips make their way [...]

NSFW — language and violence

Hall of Fame — in the on-deck-circles

I heard you didn’t miss me, but I’m baaaaaack. I brought some future gimmes above the fold, gave you some more from the 90s to chew on below it …

The You-Knew-It-Was-Coming Hubba: Paul Ryan

(tumblr photo from the Hey Girl It’s Paul Ryan site)

Because I love a man who’s The Smartest Guy in the Room, but doesn’t rub it in.

Because ”…starts with AC/DC & ends with Zeppelin” was one of the best lines of the night.

Because, really, I can’t choose his best line — he had more [...]

Thursday Open Thread

Nighthawks by Edward Hopper. Back to basics… the parody has eclipsed the original in the American consciousness…no James Dean, Marilyn, or Elvis — not that they weren’t just as isolated as Hopper’s urban commoners.
